Boston/Beacon Hill Attractions & Activities - The Best Holiday Destinations for 2020
The location of the Cheers bar, formerly Bull and Finch pub that inspired the television show.
One of Boston's most historic and beautiful neighborhoods, Beacon Hill is geographically demarcated by Cambridge Street to the North, Beacon Street to the South, Storrow Drive to the West, and Bowdoin Street to the East. The neighborhood is mostly residential, comprised of numerous red brick townhouses and close proximity to three of Boston's largest public spaces--the Public Gardens, the Boston Commons, and the park space that runs along the Charles river. Because the Massachusetts State House is located here, "Beacon Hill" is often used as a metonym to refer to the state government or the legislature.
